Hello Junkies! Here we go with my fourth podcast novel, THE ROOKIE. I hear you out there, saying crap like “sci-fi football? How good can it be? Has Sigler lost it?”
Shut your pie-holes. You’re pissing off your favorite dealer. Shut your pie-holes, and start listening. You think this is a game to me? Trust me, I’ll have you strung out and tapping a vein in no time at all.
THE ROOKIE:
The Rookie is a summer blockbuster podcast novel by Scott Sigler, author of EarthCore, Ancestor and Infection.
Imagine a story that combines the intense football action of “Any Given Sunday” with the space opera style of “Star Wars” and the criminal underworld of “The Godfather.”
“The Rookie” is set amongst a lethal pro football league 700 years in the future. Aliens play positions based on physiology, creating receivers that jump 25 feet into the air, linemen that bench-press 1,200 pounds, and linebackers that - literally - want to eat you. Organized crime runs every franchise, games are fixed and rival players are assasinated.
Follow the story of Quentin Barnes, a 19-year-old quarterback prodigy that has been raised all his life to hate, and kill, those aliens. Quentin must deal with his racism and learn to lead, or he’ll wind up just another stat in the column marked “killed on the field.”

It kills me to have to listen to one show then wait 7 days. The first podcast release I dnd’t find out about until like recording 14. It was great to listen to it all at once. Can I just forget about Scott for the next two months or so and then come back and listen to all the goodness at once? PLEASE GOD HELP ME!
